giving up control to the students
having large classes
teaching different populations, ie ESL students, ability levels
having the time to devote to allow students to be involved
steps to implement solutions:
How do I ensure accountability when students are working in groups?
Assigning different jobs that are fair and equitable within the groups.
Making the group responsible for project as a group. Using all the jobs to create product.
Vary the jobs (rotating) within the product itself.
Individual responses (oral or written) required as product is presented.
Informally assess students through observation, rubric, anecdotal notes, etc.
Module 5 Thoughts and Reflections
Module 6: Learning Modalities
Post your group's reponses to the these three statements below.
List 5 facts that your shared during the discussion.
List 2 similarities between the three frameworks for understanding learning styles.
List 2 differences between the three frameworks for understanding learning styles.
5 Facts:
Visual Auditory Kinesthetic is learning using your senses.
Elem. studetns according to research are 29% visual, 34% auditory, and 37 % kinesthetic learners.
Right brained/global learners perceive things as a whole, are people oriented, and learn material in social contexts.
Left brained/analytic learners perceive things in parts and impose restrictions on information.
According to Howard Gardner, there are 8 styles of learning and people can exhibit different styles depending on the context.
2 similarities:
Individuals can exhibit characteristics of each of these learning styles.
Teachers must use their judgment and professional opinion to determine which learning style is most appropriate for instructional purposes.
2 differences:
Left-brain and right-brain differences are based on brain hemispheres.
VAK is based on a student using their senses to learn.
Module 7: Facilitating with Technology
Before discussing your question, the group may want to view the Designing Effective Projects resource. If so, go to www.intel.com/education/DesignProjects. Then, click on Instructional Strategies, then on Questioning and review the ideas about Elaborating, Hypothetical, and Clarification Questions, and Socratic Questioning.
Question
How can you teach students the skills they need to perform higher-order thinking when they create projects? What types of questions, prompts, and scaffolds can you use to encourage students to think deeply and not simply copy-and-paste answers?
Give the questions prior to the group discussion
Students must provide evidence to prove answers
Elaboration must be in their own words - paraphrased
Provide ongoing instruction that uses higher-order thinking question stems
